Mg alloys could potentially be used as the structural materials of next-generation high-speed transportation systems on account of their extremely low density (1.7 Mg/m3). However, the plastic formability of Mg alloys at room temperature is poor, which can be attributed to the hexagonal close-packed (hcp) crystal structure. Moreover, Mg alloys are flammable as a result of the activated metal in the...
